UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.0x] Jimbo's Custom Status/Rank v0.0004 [Finished]

Thanks Qasic! Thats fixed it right up.

Here is another question for you. I really love this mod. But in general on my board it has produced an outragous amount of spamming From people trying to get their Ranks elevated. IF I set it to "custom Titles only" will the default ranking system then show up.

I would like to remove the ranks all together.

Thanks

LWC

If it is Custom Titles only then no ranks should appear.

qasic

hey man, i did it perfectly, but when i updated in the cp it said it couldnt write to the file vars_custom_status.cgi but thats cuz it isnt there, so can someone help?

2 pac: CHMOD your variables directory to be 777. Once the file has been created, then chmod back to its original value.

Elix,

You'll have to ask your host why it doesn't work. It works fine on 3 different ISPs here.

i keep getting that error! what am i doing wrong?

CHMOD your Variables directory (probably CGI-BIN) 777. Create that file again and then CHMOD back to its original value.

qasic

in the directions when it says "files generated" do i have to make that file with nothing in it then upload it?

No that just tells the user what files the Script generates so it's easier to clean up the hack if you decide to uninstall it.

qasic

Will this mod work on UBB 6.03?

how do i get rid of the space under every persons name?

I presume you're using Titles Only then? Then remove the rank related one in the public_topic_page.pl

Cartoon, cp.cgi was hacked incorrectly. Re-hack from backups.

qasic

Hmmmm...for some reason it's not creating these files:

cstatus.cgi
crank.cgi
crankma.cgi
cranko.cgi

Because I looking in my cgi-bin and they wernt there and when I try to add a status I get this error:

unable to open custom status database (/home/coders-n/public_html/ultanime/cgi-bin/cstatus.cgi) for output

Q this rocks, thanks again! Very easy install

I installed this hack and it seems to be working fine, but I can't figure out how the override features work. For example, I have 5 levels of custom ranks. And then on top of that I have certain people with custom statuses. If one of these people post, both the custom rank AND the custom status comes up, first the custom rank then below it the custom status. Is there any way that it can shuttle between the two depending on if they have a custom rank or not?

The hack for UBB version 5 worked like that. It would first look at the custom rank and then if some had a custom status, it would override it and post just that.

I don't know if I missed part of the hack but it works fine other than that. My version # is 6.04e.

qasic,

I *think* I've read all of the posts here, but this has probably been asked: if I'm using ranks but not titles, can I eliminate the blank space that titles would have taken?

Rajah: That's the designed behaviour. If you want the other behaviour, you can use Dark Templar's Star Hack.

Laguna: You have to remove the $custom_rank field from ubb_topic_page.pl.

qasic

Sorry qasic, one more thing (I'm a bigtime rookie)... does this hack disable the Anchor hack, or do I simply reapply Anchor? The install for this hack worked perfectly, but Anchor died.

Thanks

- ML -

Love this Mod!!

Sorry, I haven't used Anchor hack with this hack so I don't know.

qasic

Hi,

this hack is great, but I have a few questions.

As you can see here :
Topic of my forum
I can see the Rank of my Moderators and Admins, but I can´t see the member´s rank. Also my members can´t see it, so I suppose I did something wrong.

I can setup everything in the CP, I can save it etc. everything works there, so I guess I did something wrong in the ubb files... but I don´t now, I am not very good in programming

Thanks for your help
Dennis

Looks as if you have not set your ranks for Members under Manage Custom Ranks/Status in the Maintenance menu.

qasic

Hi,

I did that - I placed the following ranks into Manage Custom Rank/Status in the Custom Ranks field :

16|!!|Matrose
32|!!|Maat
64|!!|Bootsmann
128|!!|Hauptbootsmann
192|!!|Stabsbootsmann
256|!!|Fähnrich
384|!!|Leutnant
512|!!|Oberleutnant
640|!!|Kapitänleutnant
768|!!|Korvettenkapitän
896|!!|Kommandant
1024|!!|Fregattenkapitän
1280|!!|Kapitän
1536|!!|Flottillenadmiral
1792|!!|Konteradmiral
2048|!!|Vizeadmiral
2560|!!|Admiral
3072|!!|Großadmiral

I think that´s right, isn´t it ?
But nothing is shown !

Do I have to think of anything else ?

Dennis

In your Custom Title/Rank settings, have you set Both for the Display setting?

qasic

ok
thanx


but this hack working with ubb 6.04 e or 6.04 d?????

replay please!

yes

Hi,

I am still working on getting this hack run.

I reinstalled it again, checked again, checked to CHMOD everything right etc.

-> Just the Mods/Admins are shown, no matter what is set in the CP. The crank.cgi gets everything right, but the ranks for my members are not shown.

Perhaps this is because I use the german version ?
I don´t know, please help

Dennis
